+# PII Detection Microservice
+
+PII Detection a method to detect Personal Identifiable Information in text. This microservice provides users a unified API to either upload your files or send a list of text, and return with a list following original sequence of labels marking if it contains PII or not.
+
+# 🚀1. Start Microservice with Python（Option 1）
+
+## 1.1 Install Requirements
+
+```bash
+pip install -r requirements.txt
+```
+
+## 1.2 Start PII Detection Microservice with Python Script
+
+Start pii detection microservice with below command.
+
+```bash
+python pii_detection.py
+```
+
+# 🚀2. Start Microservice with Docker (Option 2)
+
+## 2.1 Prepare PII detection model
+
+export HUGGINGFACEHUB_API_TOKEN=${HP_TOKEN}
+
+## 2.1.1 use LLM endpoint (will add later)
+
+intro placeholder
+
+## 2.2 Build Docker Image
+
+```bash
+cd ../../../ # back to GenAIComps/ folder
+docker build -t opea/guardrails-pii-detection:latest --build-arg https_proxy=$https_proxy --build-arg http_proxy=$http_proxy -f comps/guardrails/pii_detection/docker/Dockerfile .
+```
+
+## 2.3 Run Docker with CLI
+
+```bash
+docker run -d --rm --runtime=runc --name="guardrails-pii-detection-endpoint" -p 6357:6357 --ipc=host -e http_proxy=$http_proxy -e https_proxy=$https_proxy -e HUGGINGFACEHUB_API_TOKEN=${HUGGINGFACEHUB_API_TOKEN} -e HF_TOKEN=${HUGGINGFACEHUB_API_TOKEN} opea/guardrails-pii-detection:latest
+```
+
+> debug mode
+
+```bash
+docker run --rm --runtime=runc --name="guardrails-pii-detection-endpoint" -p 6357:6357 -v ./comps/guardrails/pii_detection/:/home/user/comps/guardrails/pii_detection/ --ipc=host -e http_proxy=$http_proxy -e https_proxy=$https_proxy -e HUGGINGFACEHUB_API_TOKEN=${HUGGINGFACEHUB_API_TOKEN}  -e HF_TOKEN=${HUGGINGFACEHUB_API_TOKEN} opea/guardrails-pii-detection:latest
+```
+
+# 🚀3. Get Status of Microservice
+
+```bash
+docker container logs -f guardrails-pii-detection-endpoint
+```
+
+# 🚀4. Consume Microservice
+
+Once microservice starts, user can use below script to invoke the microservice for pii detection.
+
+```python
+import requests
+import json
+
+proxies = {"http": ""}
+url = "http://localhost:6357/v1/dataprep"
+urls = [
+    "https://towardsdatascience.com/no-gpu-no-party-fine-tune-bert-for-sentiment-analysis-with-vertex-ai-custom-jobs-d8fc410e908b?source=rss----7f60cf5620c9---4"
+]
+payload = {"link_list": json.dumps(urls)}
+
+try:
+    resp = requests.post(url=url, data=payload, proxies=proxies)
+    print(resp.text)
+    resp.raise_for_status()  # Raise an exception for unsuccessful HTTP status codes
+    print("Request successful!")
+except requests.exceptions.RequestException as e:
+    print("An error occurred:", e)
+```
